Setup Guide / Five Steps

Five steps from sign-up to a working connection

This page keeps only the path from zero to a working setup: create an account, choose a plan and order, copy the subscription link from the panel, import the subscription into your client, then connect and verify. Each step says where to click, what you should see, and what comes next.

Client interfaces and menu names differ between platforms, so this page describes entry points based on the common layout for each. If what you see doesn't match exactly, go by whatever entry in the client mentions subscription or configuration — the order of operations stays the same.

01

Create an account

Open the registration page in the user panel — the form asks for just two things: username and password. This service does not require an email address, and there is no email field on the page. Fill in those two, confirm the terms and submit, and registration is done. You are signed in automatically and land on the account overview page in the panel.

The overview page is the starting point for everything that follows: plan status and expiry date at the top, the subscription section in the middle, order history below. Right after registering, before any order, plan status shows as not activated and the subscription section is empty — that's normal. A subscription is only generated after purchase.

Your username and password are the only login credentials. Save them in a password manager, or somewhere only you can reach, the moment you register. Because registration does not collect an email address, recovering lost login details is considerably harder — get them written down once and you won't have to deal with that.

Choose a plan and order

Once signed in, open the plan purchase page in the panel. The monthly subscription comes in three tiers, split by monthly data allowance: ¥9.9/month for 60GB, ¥18/month for 250GB, ¥28/month for 500GB. All three include the same route coverage and unlimited devices — only the monthly allowance differs, so pick by your own usage.

Estimating usage: if you only look things up on a laptop, send messages and watch the occasional video, the 60GB tier is usually enough. With several devices at home online at once, regular HD video or long sessions with AI tools, the 250GB and 500GB tiers leave more headroom. Data resets monthly on the day you activated, so the cycle always falls on the same date — activating near the end of the month won't wipe your allowance two days later.

If your usage varies, there are also pay-as-you-go data packs: ¥158/300GB, ¥358/1000GB, ¥658/3000GB. They are used until they run out and never expire. Data packs work best as a top-up — add one in a heavy month instead of upgrading the whole monthly tier for a little extra.

Once you've picked a tier, confirm the order. Payment options include Alipay, WeChat Pay and USDT. After payment, return to the panel: the order status changes to activated, the plan takes effect immediately, and the subscription section generates your link. If you want to move up a tier later, the price difference is converted into remaining days, so you don't have to wait for the next cycle. This service offers a 7-day no-questions-asked refund — trying it for a week beats reading review after review.

Get the subscription link

Once your plan is active, go back to the account overview page in the panel and find the subscription section. It shows a subscription link and two actions: copy the subscription link, and one-click import. The link is a tokenised address that the client uses to pull the route list, and looks roughly like this:

https://example.com/sub?token=YOUR_TOKEN

The string above is only a format example — always use the link copied from the panel. A subscription link is equivalent to account credentials: anyone who has it can pull your route list, so don't post it in public groups or forums, and don't share full-screen screenshots. When you need it on a new device, copy it again from the panel; there's no need to keep it in a chat history long term.

The panel also offers one-click import: tap it on a device where the client is already installed and the client opens with the subscription address filled in, saving you the copy and paste. If nothing happens, the client is usually not installed yet, or the system isn't handing these import requests to it — finish the installation in step 4 and come back to import by copying the link.

After the subscription is imported, the route list is maintained centrally in the panel. If you change plans later or want a different group in the client, refresh the subscription to pull it again — no reinstall and no need to copy the link again.

Client import

Clients all come from the Download page in the panel: sign in and pick the installer for your device — Windows, macOS, iOS, Android and Linux are all covered. The same subscription works on unlimited devices; import it once per device and they won't interfere with each other afterwards.

Below is which client to use per platform and where the import entry lives. The import logic is the same on all four: copy the subscription link in the panel, paste and save it in the client's subscription or configuration entry, then pick a route and connect.

Windows

Desktop clients

Get the Windows installer from the panel's download page and follow the wizard. When it opens, the feature bar is on the left; click Subscription to open subscription management, which is empty on first use.

Import path: Subscription → Add subscription → Paste link → Save

macOS

Menu bar app

After installation the macOS client lives in the menu bar. Click the menu bar icon to open the panel, where both subscription management and route selection happen.

Import path: Menu bar icon → Subscription → Add subscription → Paste link → Save

Android

Mobile clients

Get the Android installer from the panel's download page and open the app after installing. On first launch it asks for permission to establish a VPN connection — allow it as prompted, otherwise no connection can be established.

Import path: Subscription in the app → Add subscription → Paste link → Save

iOS

Mobile clients

The iOS client comes from the App Store; the link is on the panel's download page. On first connection the system shows a confirmation dialog to add a VPN configuration — allow it, and the connection can then be established normally.

Import path: Subscription in the app → Add subscription → Paste link → Save

Linux

The client for Linux is also available on the panel's download page, and importing works the same way: copy the subscription link, paste and save it in the client's subscription or configuration entry, then pick a route and connect.

Once it's installed, don't rush to reinstall. If the client says connected but pages won't load, it's usually the wrong route or another proxy setting still active on the system — running through the verification order in step 5 is much faster than uninstalling and starting over. Distribution differences, command-line imports and routing rules are covered in Beginner to Advanced.

Connect and verify

After the subscription is imported, the client shows a route list grouped by region and route type, covering 90+ countries / 160+ routes. For the first connection, pick a route near you marked as direct or relay; once connected, switch by purpose — the AI tools group for AI work, the streaming group for video. The client shows latency measured from your device; treat it as a reference and judge by whether the sites you need actually load smoothly.

After connecting, verify once to confirm traffic really goes over the international route. Open any IP lookup site: the location shown should be the country or region of the route you selected, not your local address. Then open a site you normally use — if it loads, the setup is working. If the IP lookup still shows your local address, disconnect and reconnect, then try another route.

There's another case where it looks connected but isn't: the client says connected, but a browser proxy extension or another proxy setting left on the system is pulling traffic back to the local connection. If that happens, disable browser extensions and other proxy software first, then repeat the checks above.

  • The region shown by the IP lookup matches the location of the selected route
  • The sites you normally use open reliably, not on and off
  • Behaviour is the same after disconnecting and reconnecting — not a one-off lucky connection

Once verification passes, day-to-day use needs no further attention. To switch routes, just pick another one in the client — no need to re-import the subscription; on a new device, repeat step 4. The full troubleshooting order (exit IP, DNS, per-app routing — three checks) is in How to confirm your VPN is actually working; come back to it if connections keep failing.

Where to find answers when you're stuck

The five steps above cover how most people get set up. If a step doesn't match what you see, or the connection doesn't feel right afterwards, work through the options below in order — it's more effective than reinstalling the client over and over.
